WikitipHonesty is the best policy with new technolgiesStorage vendors should support the rapid adoption of technologies like data deduplication and thin provisioning by making best practice education a top priority. Rather than simply touting the death of tape (in the case of de-dupe) or thin provisioning everywhere, leading suppliers need to educate users on where the technologies fit, where they don't, what caveats exist and how to work around them. This approach will provide a much stronger foundation for emerging technologies and reduce backlash downstream. |
Featured Case StudyFinancial giant goes greenThe corporate IT group of a very large, worldwide financial organization with 100,000 employees, has initiated an ongoing “greening” process. This is focused largely on reducing energy use both to decrease the corporation's carbon footprint while creating a net savings in operational costs over the lifetime of new, more energy-efficient equipment, including new storage systems. |

Featured How-To Note |
Planning a Green Storage InitiativeFluctuating energy prices have heightened electricity and energy consumption as a major issue within the technology community. IT is a significant consumer of energy and IT energy costs have been rising disproportionately because of continued investment in denser IT equipment. Estimates from the EPA and others indicate that IT will account for 3% of energy consumption by 2012. |
